Thanks to all who responded to this; I got a lot of very valuable information, and am beginning to get a conceptual grasp of ovpn configuration principles. Just like commercial support varies widely from vendor to vendor, community support varies from project to project. This list, and its participants, are clearly excellent - I got a wealth of very valuable information very quickly, which is an extremely comforting thing to know before deploying a new technology!!!
